Accountability needed

To the Editor:

You can check previous administrations up to the present, and look at the history of accountability with politicians and government agencies, but there is none.

What you will hear is “resignation.” No criminal charges. In the private sector, there would be fines and jail time for some of these offenses, but in Washington, they are above the law.

From the Gulf oil spill, with the head of a government agency charged with inspecting these rigs allegedly taking bribes, to the “Fast and Furious” scandal with Eric Holder’s lack of recollection, and everything from the past to the present, no accountability.

Is resignation a way to end an issue? To stop an investigation to see how far it goes? We can only speculate.
It is time for Americans to wake up and demand Washington to be accountable for its actions and send a message. They are not above the law. They must atone for their crimes against the people and laws of our land. Resignation is not an option.
